Q. What kind of jacket would a kid of the eighties have worn?

Q. What action figure would a little boy have most likely played with?

We are stoked to announce that this month’s theme at North Shore CrossFit Topsfield is 80′s week.  All of you bodacious babes, pull out your leg warmers, half shirts, stockings, neon shirts, lace gloves and do up that hair with some good old fashioned teasing and aqua net.  Guys if you’ve got the hair left..show it off with a fresh mullet!

We will be having 80′s trivia throughout the week along with 80′s themed exercises each day.  This should be a totally rad week.  We will end it with 80′s Saturday, where you are all encouraged to come dressed in your 80′s costume, do some “pissa” exercises, and win a prize!

So don’t be a hoser and totally grody to the max, come to 80′s week!  Word to your mother!

Here is a picture of one of our fave’s Diane Frampton kicking the spiral perm!

2010 CrossFit Games Review

The CrossFit Games was a good surprise this year.  I thought after last year CrossFit had arrived as a force in the fitness world but I was wrong.  It was this year.  It was held in a sports complex and the event was staffed by the Home Depot Center.  It made all the difference in the world.  CrossFit was able to focus on what is does best.  Put on a fittest person on the Planet competition.  This years programming did not favor the heavy metcon junkies.  Instead workouts were well rounded and full of skill.  They definitely found the most well rounded, highly skilled, mentally strong, fittest people on this planet.  Congratulations  CrossFit HQ for putting on a badass competition!
